    DealerRefresh Top100

    Some good stuff going on here since I brought up Tekion last week. We've done some more training with them and I just want my hands on it. I'm excited about everything it has and I can tell that they have some smart folks on "the nerd side" putting it all together. I'm a pre-owned...

    DealerRefresh Top100

    I feel like I bring up Ebay motors in 2005 as an example, almost weekly, that as much as they said back then you won't need to go into a dealership again, and then how the emotional attachment to buying a car is still so very true to this day, just says so much of hiring the right people to take...

    DealerRefresh Top100

    Thanks @Dan Sayer. A few of the decsion makers saw it live in person at a high volume high line store in NY. After searching around and seeing some other thoughts on them I'm definitely going to keep an eye out when the install folks come since they sound separated from the sales folks. But...

    DealerRefresh Top100

    What's rough about it? Probably switching to them in the coming months so would love to know some nuances. I was impressed with it seeing it with someone else demonstrating it, but haven't actually used it. They said they can build out alot of reports etc at launch so getting our ducks in a row...

    Truecar rate increase

    Yeah I just noticed our old rep here in MD. is also not listed on the dealer portal anymore. He said he still works for TC just in a different role.

    Quoting Online w/o Destination Fee

    Welcome to the madness of internet sales.....As Billfred said above, just position yourself as the good guy and hope for the best. It sucks all you can do is hope for the best because so many consumers may not even believe you when you tell them "the reality" and then say they're going there to...

    iPad friendly CRM

    Been using elead on my iPad and it works good. Sometimes I have to refresh the new lead page a few times here and there but other than that it's pretty good. The emailing through the iPad works awesome Overall I guess I'm very happy with how it works but I dont have it connected to any...

    Anyone using or know about Elead CRM?

    My only gripe has nothing to do with eLead eventhough it affects them, and that is with our internet network and the security settings. When I'm in an individual customer screen and I edit trade info, etc the window will freeze up and I have to close out the individual customer profile and go...

    Anyone using or know about Elead CRM?

    this was the first thread that showed up in search soo.......Just wanted to post that we now have elead here in our dealer group and I am really liking the system so far. Talk about a total 180 degree turn from Autobase. I have been very impressed with the system and how quickly they were able...

    Looking for feedback on iMotors

    The guy from Imotors called me again yesterday and started the conversation out like we had never talked before. Kinda wierd when I referred him to the E-Commerce director anyways, since I have no say with what happens..... They say they sell alot of their leads to the manufacturer. I wonder...

    Equity Mining Solutions

    We just got Autoalert and the results are great so far! The system really had great scripts for both the conversation and even leaving VM's. It also has alot of information there to show if you even have a possible shot to make deal. (High, Medium and Low priority). We try not to focus on the...

    What to make of mystery shopping another dealer?

    tough one....I definitely mystery shop though most of my competition go about their leads pretty much the same. Since the luxury market is a little different then yours I have to step back and remember how it was when I was at Toyota. What a cut throat market where dealers try to get the extra...

    Crisis in Japan - Is your Dealership Worried?

    we have an ok inventory now but its going to get brutally thin starting in May and will probably be through the summer. Our first allocation of cars in May will have around 10 cars on it, when it normally has at least 30-40 (bi-monthly). So when they are saying 2/3's of the supply is lost, they...

    Phone Up Ninjas makes AutoBlog

    Way to go Jerry. I saw this last night and couldn't believe what I was reading, to what I have seen on here. I am far from surprised that the media/article writer put a spin on it that is far from what the original interview(s) made it to be. :thumbdn: ....I was wondering if the audio file...

    Thpughts on my own FB profile for people to "Like" and follow but it's not my personal page? Thought

    Gauging thoughts (and effectiveness) of doing a FB page for people to like and I can post up anything from incentives and other small, "non-spamlike" type of marketing for myself and the dealership. It would for me at the dealership. My personal page is more for private/personal stuff. The...
